COVID-19 Update
Our venue IS COVID 19 Secure and CAN accommodate social distancing due to:
We are an exclusive venue in the countryside so consider the risk to be lower than other venues (who have an open door policy) – we will also be pre-screening guests using our electric gate which is being kept locked.
Loads of outside space and a licensed outdoor area.
The size of our barn and its high ceilings makes the room open and airy.
Plenty of natural ventilation.
Natural wooden tables and chairs (as the virus lives on fabrics no tablecloths or chair covers are needed).
We have purchased a new NHS approved industrial sanitising machine and additional hand sanitisers and will fully clean and sanitise our venue pre and post every event.

Full Description
At The Wellbeing Farm, we know that wedding planning can be stressful. That’s why we’ve created a unique wedding venue that specialises in delivering stress-free, fun, and personalised weddings. How do we do this, you ask?
Incredible Venue Co-ordination
Through a structured programme of meetings with our friendly venue co-ordinators, who’ll be with you all the way on your journey, from your first viewing to the wedding day itself. Plus, if you ever need to speak, we’re only ever a phone call away.
Authentic Farm Experience
You’ll have exclusive use of our countryside farm on your wedding day in the picturesque West Pennine Moors. What sort of farm would we be if we didn’t have animals? We share the farm with our friendly llamas, alpacas, and donkeys! There are two places to get married at the farm, our wedding barn, and our outdoor wedding pavilion, each seating 170 guests, or 300 standing guests. Plus, coming this year, we have a smaller space coming for intimate weddings.
Quality Food & Drink
All food is sourced locally, even going as far to grow edible flowers on the farm! We have a range of food options, from party-style food to trendy grazing table to more formal affairs. There are three bars at the farm, all stocked with a massive range of draughts, soft drinks, and spirits, we even have prosecco on tap!
Sustainable Venue
All power on the farm is generated from our wind turbine, we’ve banned single-use plastics, and our food waste goes into the compost.
And Much More!
We have a tipi with a smokeless fire, a fire pit for roasting marshmallows, a range of garden games, two wedding accommodations and a llama-themed photo booth!
We hold regular Wedding Open Days and you can book directly onto the here: https://www.trybooking.com/uk/events/landing?eid=13010&
We can't wait to meet you!!

Personal Message from the Manager
Name of Wedding Contact: Celia
Thank you so much for finding our fun, unique and magical wedding venue.
It is absolutely impossible to try and describe all of the above in a brochure or a website and the farm facilities are constantly changing. It is also difficult to tell you how much a wedding will cost without knowing more about you.
I can GUARANTEE that our venue is unlike any other venue which you will come across and I do hope you come and visit, as we believe that our photos and videos just don’t do the farm justice.

The Fastest Wedding Ever!
Dear Celia,
Thank you so, so much for your lovely email - despite everything, we had the loveliest afternoon at the farm yesterday and given the changes last night, we feel incredibly lucky to have managed to squeeze in the ceremony while we still could. We honestly cannot thank you and everyone at the farm (especially Daniella who has been with us since the start) for absolutely everything and we can only imagine what you must be going through right now. We are really, really excited for having our ‘real’ celebration and the day we had originally planned this time next year at the farm and we know that you guys will help us put on the day of our dreams when it comes around.
We will send you some photos through once our photographer has passed them on which of course you can use on your social media - I think everyone could do with some positive news for a change at the moment.
Thank you again for managing to arrange an amazing afternoon at such short notice and helping us make it happen. See you next year if not before!
Love Katherine and Alex x
